There were shouts of killing from the direction of the Ming army's camp, and the shouts of army training continued endlessly.

The troops were pulled out one by one, fully armed and ran around the entire camp to train the endurance of the troops.

Some recruits were gathered together and doing the simplest queue training.

Left and right!Left and right!
The soldiers marched neatly, raised their legs, kicked their legs, and the ground seemed to be shaking.

Whenever someone made a slight mistake, or turned a corner, or snapped a shot, he would be pulled out by the instructor and whipped.

As a large number of soldiers raised their legs and kicked their legs together, smoke and dust filled the sky inside and outside the camp.

He An, the eldest son of the Patriarch of the He family, said.

"Soldiers of Master Wang, you are walking really well!"

"This is too neat, it looks like a powerful army in the world!"

Whether it is cross-country training or marching in formation, the Ming army in front of them is quite neatly arrayed.

It looks like an invincible army!

The young master of the He family had also read military books, but he had never seen such an army.

The Patriarch of the He family said while wiggling his beard.

"That's right!"

"It's not a strong army, how can we kill Shang Kexi's dog thief, how can we drive out the Tartars in the future and restore China, and reproduce the great achievements of the great grandfather?!"

Just as the father and son of the He family were talking, another convoy came in the distance.

The convoy was also stopped and stopped next to the He family's convoy.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the Patriarch of the He family learned that the other party was also an official of Daming, whose surname was Pei, and that the specific situation of the Pei family was similar to that of the He family.

The same famous and prestigious gentry in Guangdong were also conferred local official positions after they took the lead in raising the flag to fight against the Qing Dynasty and seized the place.

The two chatted for a while, but there was a feeling of having a happy conversation.

Not long after, a group of cavalry came rushing towards the camp of the Ming Army, and after conducting identity verification and safety checks on the two convoys, they ordered their release.

However, for the safety of the camp, only those with official status were released, and the rest were asked to be resettled elsewhere.

The Patriarch of the He family and the Patriarch of the Pei family walked side by side in the direction of Daying.

The closer you get to the camp, the more you can feel the murderous aura coming from the shop.

The mighty and majestic soldiers, the sharp eyes, the strict order that can be seen everywhere, the worn armor and knives and guns of the soldiers on duty...

Everything is exaggerating the majesty of the army!
And the power of Zhu Hongyu, the supervisor of the Ming Dynasty, also came from the army to put it bluntly.

Now the more pressure the Ming army puts on them, the more docile they will behave in front of Zhu Hongyu.

……

In the big tent, Zhu Hongyu was wearing a golden armor and a scarlet cloak behind him, sitting at the head of the tent.

The expression on his face made people feel like a spring breeze, but there was a foreshadowing in front, so no one dared not to take Zhu Hongyu seriously.

He, Zhu Hongyu, can be gentle with his subordinates, but you can't push your nose to your face!

Looking around, his eyes lingered on almost everyone for a while, Zhu Hongyu said.

"The Ming Dynasty was able to drive out the Tartars and recover Guangdong Province. The contribution of all the gentry and people who are devoted to the Ming Dynasty cannot be ignored!"

"Today, Gu invites everyone to come here!"

"On the one hand, we are preparing to reopen the imperial examinations and hold official recruitment exams."

"Recruit enough grassroots officials to fill the vacancies in local administration."

"The current Ming Dynasty is full of waste, and it is a time when a large number of talents are needed. If there are children who have read poetry and books in the families of the gentlemen, please stand up and show their talents to the fullest on the stage of the Ming Dynasty!"

After Zhu Hongyu's words fell, the local gentry stood up and expressed their opinions.

"I am willing to die for Daming!"

"The children of my family are all willing to become officials of the Ming Dynasty, please accept it, Your Highness!"

"If the imperial examinations can be reopened in Ming Dynasty, the gentry and common people of the world will surely return to their hearts, and the Northern Expedition to the Tartars will be just waiting for the hearts of the people."

Listening to their statement, Zhu Hongyu nodded in satisfaction and said.

"Very well, besides that, there is a second thing."

"That is to call on the localities to organize group training, and use clans or villages as units to form villages to protect themselves against the counterattack of the Qing army."

"At the very least, when the main force of the Qing army is at war with the main force of the Qing army, it must be ensured that the place can withstand the sporadic attacks of the Qing army."

Zhu Hongyu even opened up the right to self-established team training to local governments.

He knew the dangers of allowing local self-established regiments to train, but he knew better the consequences of allowing the Qing army to enter his hinterland without hindrance.

The lesser of the two powers!
Zhu Hongyu would rather that after he ruled the world, he would slowly disintegrate, appoint an official and make a wish, and use gentle means to solve the matter of the local group training.

Nor is he willing to lose a large number of people under the butcher's knife of the Qing Dynasty in the process of dominating the world.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Hongyu also opened the authority to the local government to purchase a certain amount of hot weapons such as guns and artillery, as well as cold weapons such as knives, guns, bows and arrows.

Of course, Zhu Hongyu will not sell high-tech weapons such as rifled guns, rifled guns, flower bombs, and rockets.

He promised to provide weapons to the local regiments, not so much to arm the locals as to clear the stockpile.

During the battle with the Qing army, the Ming army seized a large number of cold weapons and firearms of different quality.

The Ming army looked down on these rags of the Qing army, and they just let them go, so they might as well go out and collect a certain amount of funds back and forth!

Of course, when selling firearms, Zhu Hongyu at most sold some small cannons such as tiger squat guns and Frang machine guns equipped by the Qing army.

The red cannon will never be sold!
Even the armor in his cold weapons is sold in limited quantities.

Moreover, in order to ensure the smoothness of local taxation and recruitment work, the amount of weapons purchased by the landlord and gentry families in these places is closely related to the amount of taxes paid by their own families.

Then, Zhu Hongyu ordered these local officials to love the people and not to do anything that harms the people, otherwise don't say it was unpredictable!

In fact, the oppression of these landlords and gentry is the oppression. Compared with the Manchu Qing, they still have a bottom line.

Especially after experiencing the troubled times at the turn of Ming and Qing Dynasties, the population loss was serious, and even social conflicts were greatly alleviated.

Coupled with the threat of the powerful enemy of the Manchu Qing, the landlords and gentry needed to win over the people to organize a regiment to fight against the Manchu Qing.

Therefore, although there must be social conflicts, the relationship between landlords and gentry compared with ordinary people is still that of hungry wolves and sheep.

But in the face of the powerful tiger, the common enemy, the wolf will never bully the sheep to death!

After sending away these landlords and gentry, Zhu Hongyu sat alone in the big tent and continued to handle official duties.

The first is the establishment of the tax department and the formation of armed tax police!
Then there is the industrial and commercial development and industrial revitalization plan he set according to the regional conditions of Guangdong.

Another very important thing is Zhu Hongyu's arrangements for local affairs.

Including vigorously promoting the reform of the integration of officials and local staff, and the policy of sending government to the countryside.

Although for the time being, Zhu Hongyu's plan for local governance is to compromise with the landlords and gentry in exchange for a smooth transition of local power and the smooth progress of tax collection and conscription.

Including the policy of opening up group training, etc.!

However, Zhu Hongyu is not stupid, how could he really let the place grow bigger.

Although large-scale rectification of the local area is a matter for the future, it does not prevent Zhu Hongyu from mixing sand with the local area now.

For example, after the official recruitment examination, the children of these Guangdong landlords and gentry were arranged as local officials.
